Chapter 50 - 50 48 I Will Never Be a Worker Again in This
?Chapter 50: Chapter 48: I Will Never Be a Worker Again in This Life (Thanks to reader “Cheng Yihu” for the generous recommendation tickets!) Chapter 50: Chapter 48: I Will Never Be a Worker Again in This Life (Thanks to reader “Cheng Yihu” for the generous recommendation tickets!) Chu Feng was somewhat puzzled in his heart. He wondered why these power representatives were so eager to recruit him.
After all, not long ago, he had just killed a member of the Yue Family.
Although it was in self-defense, if the Yue Family wished to pursue the matter, a dispute would still arise.
These people were all seniors in the Martial Arts World, and it was unreasonable for them not to understand the seriousness of this issue.
Since there was a problem, he directly asked.
Upon hearing this, the representatives all burst into laughter.
Meng An pointed to Chu Feng and laughed, “You, you, you have treasures yet are unaware of it!
“Do you know how precious the Sword Qi, which is legendary, is?
“With your potential and importance, you can choose any power here.
“Whichever faction you wish to join, you can join!
“As for the Yue Family, it’s not that we look down on them.
“As long as you join our Xingyun Commerce Chamber, even ten Yue Families tied together wouldn’t dare to harm a hair on your head!”
In Chu Feng’s astonishment, several people explained the importance of Sword Qi to him all at once.
At the same time, they each offered the best terms they could provide, causing Chu Feng to be extremely surprised:
“So the Sword Qi given by the Attribute Panel is so precious, I’ve already become a sure bet in their eyes!
“I used to think that this Sword Qi was like those common abilities everyone had in the novels of my previous life.
“It seems I have underestimated the panel’s capability.”
Zhang Jing added at the end, “Our family elders mentioned it before.
“One of the prerequisites for crossing the great divide to the Hunyuan Realm is that you must understand the essence of Martial Arts, only then do you stand a chance.
“So your potential is bigger than imagined!”
He was the first to attract Chu Feng’s attention, afraid of being intercepted by others, and hurriedly asked:
“Classmate Chu, are you interested in joining the Zhang Family, or in other words, you can take whatever we have!”
Chu Feng responded calmly, “What do you mean by ‘everything’?”
Zhang Jing waved his hand, grandly stating, “All the cultivation resources of the Zhang Family are open to you.
“The power and connections we have are at your disposal.
“The way of cultivation and lifestyle, you can choose.
“You can choose any elder in the family, including the family head, to teach you.
“You decide the time and place!
“Your seniority will be second only to the family head and the grand elder, equal to the other elders.
“Everyone must greet you with a bow and address you as Elder Chu!”
“Hiss—” the other representatives gasped in shock, the temperature in the room immediately dropped a degree or two.
They secretly cursed in their hearts: What the hell are you thinking?
How can you offer such outrageous conditions?
You’re indeed driving up the price too much!
Chu Feng heard this series of incredibly appealing conditions, yet he felt no impulse.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly raised his head and asked seriously:
“So, what’s the price? The Zhang Family can’t possibly be inviting a big shot over without expectations.
“There must be some demands on me.”
At this point, Zhang Jing’s expression became slightly embarrassed, while others in the room displayed a look of schadenfreude.
They wanted to hear how Zhang Jing would respond, knowing that the conditions set by Noble Families for recruitment were one more severe than the other.
It seemed that young Chu Feng was not someone easy to deceive.
Zhang Jing rubbed his nose, “First, you must choose a woman from the Zhang Family to be your wife.
Whether you marry into the family or she marries into yours, it’s your choice, and we won’t interfere.
Secondly, within five years, you must father a son with her, bearing the Zhang surname as a member of the Zhang Family.
Lastly, in times of existential crisis for the family, you must help unconditionally to save the family!”
After outlining these three demands and seeing Chu Feng’s polite smile, he quickly added:
“The last condition is basically a formality, with the strength and foundation of the Zhang Family, there won’t be any existential crises.
“You can rest easy!”
Chu Feng nodded with a smile, but he didn’t believe in his heart, and muttered to himself:
‘With the strength of all humanity, we are at a disadvantage when facing demons.’
“If one day the front lines fail, who can say it is as stable as Mount Tai?”
‘Besides, having married a girl from the Zhang Family, how can I fulfill my promise with Xue Rui?’
Thinking of Wang Xue Rui, Chu Feng sneakily glanced at Wang Weiguo.
Wang Weiguo noticed him stealing a glance and misunderstood his intention, saying warmly:
“Xiao Feng, you can choose the path that is most beneficial for you. I will support you from behind.”
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng felt even more guilty.
Whenever he thought about the day Wang Weiguo would face the interrogation of the Patrol Team, expressionlessly answering:
“I don’t know what happened, he just came, piece by piece.”
A chill couldn’t help but run through him.
Dismissing the thoughts in his head, Chu Feng cheerfully said, “Senior Zhang, and all the seniors.
“The generous offers you have laid out are truly beyond my expectation, and I might need some time to digest this surprise.
“Please allow me to give you all a definite answer after the Martial Arts Grand Exam.
“My apologies for causing any inconvenience, seniors. I need to continue participating in the arena match now.
“After all, if I don’t secure a good position, even if I choose to join your forces, I would feel unworthy of my moral character.” he added.
The people present now had a deeper understanding of Chu Feng’s steady temperament.
For an ordinary high school student, it was good enough not to get dizzy in the face of such eager recruitment and various temptations,
let alone maintain a clear mind and decline so straightforwardly.
Luo Yong stood up with a smile: “Ladies and gentlemen,
“The exam continues, please move to the main stand.
“Our school still has many outstanding students waiting to be discovered!”
…
By the time Chu Feng returned to Arena Three, it wasn’t his turn yet.
Surrounded by awe-filled gazes from many other examinees, resembling those who saw the prehistoric Godzilla, Chu Feng found a spot to sit down unperturbed.
He planned to thoroughly think about whether to accept the offers of backing and exemption from the large forces.
Exemptions were almost useless to him.
After several arena matches, although Chu Feng had eradicated any pride that had started to form in his heart,
he saw clearly that unless a few more Foundation Establishers hidden among the crowd suddenly appeared,
the current arena matches didn’t really mean much to him.
He could easily secure an extremely good result,
and he should be among the best in the entire Eastern Region.
In the Eastern Region, how many could withstand the attack of the Mutual Destruction Secret Technique from the Foundation Building Warriors and counter-kill them?
If there truly was a freak who could compare to a cheat-enabled Chu Feng, he’d just accept it!
With that in mind, the path to Yan Capital University was not just a clear way but almost certain with about seventy to eighty percent confidence.
As for martial arts resources, Chu Feng indeed needed them.
After his parents’ sacrifice, he received a substantial amount of compensation.
If meant for living expenses alone, he was all set for the second half of his life.
Using it to purchase martial arts resources, or rent martial arts facilities, though, was hardly sufficient.
But Chu Feng knew well that there were no free lunches in the world.
To obtain resources from these major forces, one must sign a contract, sacrificing a part of his freedom.
And that was the deal-breaker for Chu Feng.
In his previous life, he worked himself to death for others!
He had barely revived through transmigration, to run it back again in this life?
That would be foolish; I have been reborn, yet to sign another indenture? I might as well have not come back at all!
Thinking this way, Chu Feng gradually made up his mind.
In this life, he would never be a worker again!
Whoever would be such is a fool!
